With scenery like this, coming back down the mountains was almost as fun as being up in them. Click here to see our route, and below for some selected shots.

Mr. Snow told me that in days long gone, gentlemen and women used to blindfold themselves when crossing Sognefjell, so as not be exposed to the singular horrors of the ugly mountains they had to travel through. Hard to imagine now that we find the same mountains so beautiful.
